JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Introduction The natural history of syringomyelia is highly variable. In some cases, patients do improve or stabilize without surgery, while others deteriorate even with aggressive interventions. Various surgical procedures for the treatment of syringomyelia have been introduced, including posterior fossa decompression, syringostomy, syringoperitoneal shunting. But even though satisfactory results have been reported for most of these procedures, some authors have been critical of these techniques. Through this paper, we will try to make our contribution by reporting the results we have got after surgical management of 6 patients operated for syringomyelia by syringo-subarachnoid shunt using T-Tube. Methods Patients The mean age of our patients was 55.4 years. Etiologies of our patients’ syringomyelia are various: only one patient had post traumatic syringomyelia (6 years after trauma). ...
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Abstract Introduction: Laryngotracheal stenosis is a complex problem resulting most often from intubation, trauma, or autoimmune disease. In this modern era, airway trauma has increased by considerable number owing to increased ventilator care in many emergency situations [ 1 ]. Anaesthetist's timely intubation saves the life of a patient but he must also be able to foresee the chaotic life of a prolongedly intubated patient who might develop stenosis. Objectives of the study: Clinical study of LTS was done to observe the various etiological causes for it and major concentration was towards the post intubational stenosis. With increasing ventilatory support for varied reasons in present day intensive care setup, the incidence of stenosis following intubation has equally increase. Management of these cases needs a great surgical expertise, due to high failure rate as well as many compli...
JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Abstract Calcific tendinitis of the longus colli is an inflammatory disease caused by calcium hydroxyapatite crystal deposition in the longus colli tendon of the prevertebral space. The typical imaging characteristics of this entity are calcifications on the longus colli tendons at the C1-2 level and fluid collection in the retropharyngeal space in plain radiograph. Usually, calcific lesion can be detected by plain radiograph. We introduce 2 case of prevertebral calcific tendinitis nonvisible in plain radiograph, but the diagnosis was confirmed on computerized tomography.
